        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[We propose to update and revise the rules that we use to evaluate mental disorders of adults and children who apply for, or receive, disability benefits under title II and Supplemental Security Income payments based on disability under title XVI of the Social Security Act. The rules we plan on revising are sections 12.00 and 112.00 in appendix 1 to subpart P of part 404 of our regulations (the listings).  These listings include such impairments as affective disorders, schizophrenic disorders, intellectual disabilities, and autistic disorders.]]></ABSTRACT>
